The Lyrics
I had the basic idea for a while but sat down and wrote the rest a couple of days ago. Warning: may be offensive if you are the Pope.
They hate and boo me in church
From their higher moral perch
Because I stewed the bible, chewed the bible
And then ate yogurt
They're disapproving in church
They say I make their stomachs lurch
Because I stewed the Bible, chewed the bible
And I was sober
Well it starts off in a gard-
En then soup with the Ark
Then Matzah fleeing harm
Parables on a farm
And all throughout
It's full of moral fiber
Put it in a pot
With salt and a lot
Of water and meat
It wasn't hard to eat
When he found out
My priest said,
"Were you high, sir?"
Well it's very absurd
How we can't eat Christ's words
But we munch his innards
This faith is for the birds
Like crows
Or maybe buzzards and vultures
They hate and boo me in church
From their higher moral perch
Because I stewed the bible, chewed the bible
And then drank soda
They're disapproving in church
They say I make their stomachs lurch
Because I stewed the bible, chewed the bible
And that's not kosher
Used a camera when I dined
It was the recording kind
And within a few days
I put the meal online
Myspace, YouTube
I think several thousand viewed it
Her face showed her shame
My mom Googled my name
Searching for a clue
What it is that I do
She told a friend
Now my shunning might never end
Well it's very absurd
How we can't eat Christ's words
But we munch his innards
This faith is for the birds
Like crows
Or maybe buzzards and vultures
They hate and boo me in church
From their higher moral perch
Because I stewed the bible, chewed the bible
And then drank soda
They're disapproving in church
They say I make their stomachs lurch
Because I stewed the bible, chewed the bible
And I was sober
Jonah tastes fishy
Judges tastes hairy
Those are both lies
Taste doesn't vary
Since all the books
Taste like ink and paper
My priest speaks of my fate
He said, " God is irate
But that can be fixed
Thanks to the collection plate
So please give more."
I laughed and said, "No way sir"
They hate and boo me in church
From their higher moral perch
Because I stewed the Bible, chewed the Bible
Chewed the Bi-i-i-i-i-ble
From their higher moral perch
Because I stewed the bible, chewed the bible
And then ate yogurt
They're disapproving in church
They say I make their stomachs lurch
Because I stewed the Bible, chewed the bible
And I was sober
Well it starts off in a gard-
En then soup with the Ark
Then Matzah fleeing harm
Parables on a farm
And all throughout
It's full of moral fiber
Put it in a pot
With salt and a lot
Of water and meat
It wasn't hard to eat
When he found out
My priest said,
"Were you high, sir?"
Well it's very absurd
How we can't eat Christ's words
But we munch his innards
This faith is for the birds
Like crows
Or maybe buzzards and vultures
They hate and boo me in church
From their higher moral perch
Because I stewed the bible, chewed the bible
And then drank soda
They're disapproving in church
They say I make their stomachs lurch

Best parody about book eating I've read in quite sometime.
This is the oddest parody I came across today...but that's a compliment! 555
(SOTM) You ate His words, and we saw that it was good.
haha loved it! Love the song, too! 555
Good
SOTM - A literate guy from the big apple writes a song about eating the bible... well, I'm sure there's a "watch out for bookworms" joke just waiting to be used here in the comments, if I could only come up with it! :-)
(SOTM) Interesting use of the OS - thank you for using one that I KNOW - plus a general weirdness about it all equals YOUR BEST YET!
(SOTM) Good
The most surreal offering I've read in ages. Loved it.
I'm not sure what to make of this. On one hand, TOS is a trainwreck IMO: doo-wop meets half-assed reggae meets copped "Stand By Me" bassline meets lame lyrics with a 50s themed video - a total cluster****. I guess 14 million other people have a different opinion about it though. At least the video wasn't filled with bling and Escalades with 24" rims...
Onto the parody, this is a massive improvement over the original and an interesting idea, with good execution. "Used a camera when I dined - It was the recording kind"... as opposed to using the non-recording kind? ???
Overall, pretty good parody, and recording it wouldn't be much of a stretch - I don't think anyone I've heard recently annoys me more than Sean Kingston.

(SOTM) Say What???? "Because I stewed the Bible, chewed the bible And I was sober" . . .Flabbergasted . . .woah. . .Um, Interesting yes. . .original yes. . .funny yes. . .but more shock value than anything.
SOTM - They don't call it the Good Book for nothing!
(SOTM) hmm, I too am flummoxed Ethan and don't quite know how to rate it- nice flow and rhythm, but the repeated choruses and verselines dropped it back a notch or two imo - but it's good to be controversial, also imo - 555
(SOTM) see above. This parody seems to have people entertained and perplexed in equal measures, Ethan. Which is not necessarily a bad thing.
(SOTM) Heh heh heh...HOW did you come up with this?! But being that I'm bombarded with this song and that awful Crank That Soulja Boy song everywhere I go, it's wonderful to see it lampooned. I actually tried book-eating myself as a toddler...not bad, actually! ;)
SOTM- Ummm, well I never heard of the original song before, but even though the subject of Bible eating is a little too out there for me, this was still enjoyable. Good job, Ethan.
